Abstract

Methodological aspects and clinical value of digital sacroiliac joint scintigraphy area are described. Preinformation of the observer affects the value of the uptake ratios significantly. A data processing is presented which reduces this effect. Nevertheless there is insufficient discrimination between normal persons and patients with acute inflammation. Routine bone scanning can therefore not be used to exclude "inflammatory changes".
